PERSONAL SAFETY

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WORK AREA SAFETY

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of ﬂ ammable

liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power

tools. Unmodiﬁ ed plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-

tions. Water entering a power tool will increase

the risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges

or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use

of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk

of electric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a residual current device

(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces

the risk of electric shock.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may

result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-

lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure

these are connected and properly used. Use of

dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must

be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or the battery pack from the power tool

before making any adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-

dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with

the power tool or these instructions to operate

the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the

hands of untrained users.

• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may affect the

power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits

etc., in accordance with these instructions,

taking into account the working conditions and

the work to be performed. Use of the power tool

for operations different from those intended could

result in a hazardous situation.

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under

the inﬂ uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or

hearing protection used for appropriate conditions

will reduce personal injuries.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off-position before connecting

to power source and/or battery pack, picking

up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with

your ﬁ nger on the switch or energising power tools

that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Recharge only with the charger speciﬁ ed by

the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of ﬁ re

when used with another battery pack.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

WARNING READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, ﬁ re and/or

serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-

faces, when performing an operation where the

cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring

or its own cord. Cutting accessories contacting

a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the

power tool “live” and could give the operator an

electric shock.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

• Use power tools only with speciﬁ cally desig-

nated battery packs. Use of any other battery

packs may create a risk of injury and ﬁ re.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away

from other metal objects like paper clips,

coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal

objects that can make a connection from one

terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-

nals together may cause burns or a ﬁ re.

• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be eject-

ed from the battery; avoid contact. If contact

accidentally occurs, ﬂ ush with water. If liquid

contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation

or burns.

SERVICE

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualiﬁ ed

repair person using only identical replacement

parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

• WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,

sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction

activities contains chemicals known to cause

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paint

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other

masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated

lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce

your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well

ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-

cially designed to ﬁ lter out microscopic particles.

WARNING Always lock trigger or

remove battery pack before changing or

removing accessories. Only use accessories

speciﬁ cally recommended for this tool. Others

may be hazardous.

Blades and Blade Selection

The blade dimensions required for this band saw

is: .020" thickness, 1/2" width and 35-3/8" in length.

The special .020" thickness reduces ﬂ exure fatigue

and provides maximum tooth life. To maximize cut-

ting life, use a blade with the correct pitch (teeth

per inch) for the speciﬁ c cutting job.

Blades are available in several pitches. To select the

proper blade, three factors should be considered:

The size, shape, and type of material to be cut.

The following suggestions are for selecting the

right blade for various cutting operations. Keep in

mind that these are broad guidelines and that blade

requirements may vary depending upon the speciﬁ c

size, shape and type of material to be cut. Gener-

ally, soft materials require coarse pitch blades and

hard materials require ﬁ ne pitch blades. Use coarse

pitch blades for thick work and ﬁ ne pitch blades for

thin work. It is important to keep at least three teeth

in the cut (see "Typical Application").

• For tough stock 3/16" up to

3-1/4" in diameter or width.

• For tough stock 5/32" to 3/4" in

diameter or width.

• For thin-wall tubing and thin

sheets heavier than 21 gauge.

• For thin-wall tubing and thin

sheets heavier than 21 gauge.
